The book was a good story of misunderstandings leading to
major issues. It was a heartwarming
romance but I really didn’t see a lot of mystery. I have never read Pride &
Prejudice and most likely never will it is just not something that
interests me which I believe this story is based on or around. It has a good
plot but it is drawn out a little too much for me and I found my mind wondering
having to really think about what I just listened to as to make sure I got the
full impact. I have read others in this time period that really pulled me in
with a lot of action, mystery etc this one just didn’t do it. I did like how Darcy
protects Elizabeth even though he wanted her for his self but wanted it to be a
match she wants not one she is forced into. All in all it was an okay read I
give it a 3.5 bring it up to a 4. Some area where just too long to really grab
and keep my attention.
Ms. Peterson did a wonderful job on narration her tones were
smooth and her voice is very rich. I really like her character voices both male
and female were full of emotion you always know what the other is feeling. You
are never left guessing who as to who is saying what, it was very easy to tell
who each character was. She got the bratty sister down so well that she got on
my nerves which I am sure was what she was suppose to do. If any breaks were
taken you could not tell, the volume stayed even throughout the whole audio.
This was a very rich, clean and clean audio with a much enjoyable voice that
does not get tiring to listen to. There isn’t any background noise it was a
very clear audio from start to finish. Ms. Peterson has a very easy voice to
listen to. I haven’t listened to anything by her and look forward to listening
to more of her work.
The author gives you a few twist and turns to make the story
more interesting. Darcy is accused of shooting Mr. Wickham. There is only one
person who can prove he wasn’t anywhere near that tent at that hour but to do
so they would have to get married. The author tells a story of what to do, tell
or not tell. The story is based on trust, honor and misunderstanding.

Summary
Everyone has a secret. Who will kill to keep theirs?
Lieutenant George Wickham is dead.
The shot rings out in Wickham's tent as the good citizens of Meryton dance the night away at Mr. Bingley's Netherfield ball. The only person who can confirm Fitzwilliam Darcy's alibi faces the loss of her reputation and her freedom if she comes forward.
Convinced that her sole motive is the pursuit of justice— and not her growing attraction to Mr. Darcy— Elizabeth Bennet begins an investigation to clear his name and evade an unwanted marriage.
If Darcy didn’t shoot Wickham in cold blood, who did? Which of Longbourn’s neighbors is not who they seem?
With a killer on the loose, can Elizabeth avoid being the next victim as she comes closer to revealing the truth?
